Every 15 minutes…the video is posted…

This show used actors, but there's real pain when someone dies every fifteen minutes because of drinking & driving

This show used actors, but there's real pain when someone dies every fifteen minutes because of drinking & driving

Last month, San Juan Emergency Services’ Lainey Volk orchestrated a two-day presentation using students from FHHS and Spring Street International School  that pointed up the terrrible cost & pain that drinking alcohol & driving exacts from people, from friends, and from the community. The program is called “Every Fifteen Minutes,” because in the US someone dies every 15 minutes in an alcohol-related accident.

The video of the show is now available – you can see the three-part video by clicking here (be sure and start on Part One.) And…a big thank you to Lainey & the EMS folks & the sheriff’s department and local community folks who helped dramatize something that tears a community apart when it happens.
